当你感觉生活混乱无序时，可以来观看受造之物，看看神所创造的一切是如此奇妙多样令人喜乐，这是一种奇妙的疗愈。在神美好的设计中，一切都有秩序和目的，我们对地球和地球上的生物了解的越多，我们就越能为它们的奇妙而欢欣喜悦。

如果你感觉心情不好或灰心丧气，可以尝试看一部关于火烈鸟、织布鸟、凤头鹦鹉或蜂鸟的自然纪录片。观看影片的时候，不妨想想基督起初就在那里，看着这一切，并为创造这个绚丽的地球生态而欢欣。（参西 1:15-20）

当我们思考神超凡卓绝的、井然有序的造物时，暂时停留在惊奇和敬畏中，也可以帮助我们接纳自己在事物中所处的位置。这也可以让我们感到踏实和安全，而不是被人类创造的时常冷漠无情的系统所抛弃。

默想神奇妙的作为——诸山、水流、鸟类、动物、昆虫和海洋生物，以及所有它们赖以生存的森林和草场也能引导我们去敬拜造物主。怀着对神的感恩，认识到这一切受造的辉煌，可以加深我们与神和祂所造世界的联系，让我们充满渴望，在赞美和敬拜中打开我们的心。

When life feels chaotic and messy, it can be wonderfully therapeutic to look at creation and see how marvelously diverse and joyful God made it to be. There is order and purpose everywhere in God's good design, and the more we learn about the earth and its creatures, the more we can celebrate how amazing it is.

If you're feeling out of sorts or discouraged, try watching a nature documentary about flamingos or weaver birds, cockatoos or hummingbirds. When you do, consider that Christ was there in the beginning, overseeing everything and taking great delight in the creation of this magnificent planet .(Colossians 1:15-20)

Spending time in wonder and awe as we consider God's extraordinary, well-ordered creation can help us appreciate our place in the order of things too. This can also lead us to feeling grounded and secure rather than tossed about by the sometimes merciless systems created by humans.

Pondering the marvelous works of God—the mountains; the water cycle; the birds, animals, insects, and sea creatures; and all the forests and plants they depend upon—can also lead us to worship. Recognizing all of this splendor with gratitude to God can deepen our connections both to God and to his world, filling us with the desire to lift up our hearts in praise and adoration.
